“…Les CTE ou CAD qui regroupent plusieurs agriculteurs sur un même objectif environnemental (et non plus un seul agriculteur sur un objectif) peuvent aussi être confrontés à ces difficultés économiques, même si en soi le regroupement d'agriculteurs peut limiter les coûts de mise en place de tels contrats, (KEPHALIACOS et ROBIN, 2004). Plus il y a d'agriculteurs regroupés sur un même objectif environnemental, plus il y a aussi diversité des caractéristiques et des comportements de ces agriculteurs.…”

“…Because of transaction costs, relatively fewer collective CTEs than anticipated were signed. Kephaliacos and Robin (2004) analyse three collective projects supported by CTEs in the Midi-Pyrénées region of France, which aimed to develop quality products while reducing water contamination by pesticides. Struillou (2003) examines the dynamics of collective projects in CTEs.…”

The OECD is a unique forum where the governments of 30 democracies work together to address the economic, social and environmental challenges of globalisation. The OECD is also at the forefront of efforts to understand and to help governments respond to new developments and concerns, such as corporate governance, the information economy and the challenges of an ageing population. The Organisation provides a setting where governments can compare policy experiences, seek answers to common problems, identify good practice and work to co-ordinate domestic and international policies.

“…Interesting experiences within specific territories The testimonies gathered and the surveys in the field show that, in a large number of cases, the implementation of the LMC programme provided an opportunity to set up contracts that were effectively based on a project approach, combined with a quality approach (see the examples provided by Képhaliacos and Robin (2004) relating to the farmers involved in the Geographical Indications approaches 'Melon du Quercy' and AOC 'Cahors' wine). The reports of the regional evaluations draw attention to territorial model contracts as in the case of the Causses du Quercy or the Haut Astarac (SOLAGRO, 2003), but most of the regional evaluators underline the setting-up of these territorial contracts towards the end of the programme.…”

Between 1999 and 2002, the Land Management Contract (LMC) programme was the principal mechanism implemented by France in response to the demands of the European Rural Development Regulation. It was presented as a territorial policy instrument, at the service of sustainable development that set out to encourage the multifunctionality of agriculture. However, the mid-term evaluation of the programme revealed that its conditions of implementation did not make it possible to fully achieve these ambitions. While it may have helped to make the principle of the contractualization of subsidies more generally accepted and legitimized the notion of the environment as a criterion in the definition of agricultural policies, more often than not, the definition frameworks of these contracts were restricted to the agricultural sphere alone and their target public to the relatively limited fringe group of farmers who were already familiar with the workings of the departmental institutions in charge of agricultural development. This paper sets out to not only describe some of the limitations of this programme but also its positive repercussions. Both are important factors if we want to approach national and European agricultural policy in terms of territorialization and with due consideration for rural development issues. The LMC was the main instrument of the Agriculture Framework Law of 1999 that embodied a ‘new approach to the management of public action’ via a policy that ‘takes into account the economic, environmental and social functions of agriculture and participates in land management with a view to sustainable development’, as stipulated by the first article of the Agriculture Framework Law of 9 July 1999.
